Cyberbunker in Traben-Trarbach: 36 buyers for secret data shortages!
The cyber bunker in Traben-Trarbach, Rhineland-Palatinate, has re-lived up to his interest-36 potential buyers are queue. This development was made by stern.de The enormous economic potential of the former data center. Most interested parties seem to have plans for entrepreneurial use, in particular as a data center or for telecommunications services. There are also municipal reporting inquiries for acquisition.
Currently there are no offers in a closer selection, which indicates the still unclear negotiability of the purchase price. The cyber bunker, which was discovered as an illegal data center in 2019, had a rather dubious reputation due to its history with criminal activities in the Darknet. Operator of the bunker was convicted as part of a large cybercrime process.
The story of the bunker
The area that extends over 13 hectares was transferred to the country in September 2022. In addition to the bunker system, it also includes two unearthly buildings. The property was originally the Bundeswehr's geographic information system, which was closed in 2012. A central point in the history of the bunker is the purchase by the ringleader of the cyber bunker gang in 2013 for 450,000 euros.
While the gang operated hundreds of servers in the bunker, almost 250,000 crimes, including drug deals and data stealing, were processed. Of course, these criminal backgrounds have left traces, but with the new sale, the state government sees the opportunity to revitalize the area for legal and economic purposes, such as SPIEGEL.de
The future of the cyber bunker
The state of Rhineland-Palatinate strives to sell the entire property based on the best purchase offer. Despite the tense situation, the economic potential of the location for various industries is not to be denied. The area of cyber security is particularly important, a topic that is of great importance not only for companies in Germany, but also for federal administration. The Federal Office for Information Technology (BSI) offers comprehensive statistics on cyber security situation in Germany, which underpins the explosiveness and challenges in this sector. According to bsi.bund.de , the BSI regularly publishes reports on current cyber-technologies and forecast.
The situation around the cyber bunker thus represents a prime example of the complex links between technological progress, legal framework and the challenges of cyber crime. Negotiations about the sale of the bunker could not only give new impulses for the regional economy, but also provide answers to the pressing questions in the field of cyber security.
